I have to say, of all the different ways to learn about potential colleges, this guidebook offers the best way to find out if a school is right for you. I actually visited FSU, along with several other schools, and while a campus visit is nice, it doesn't necessarily give you the low-down on what being a student there is REALLY like. CollegeProwler hired a student to write the book, based on interviews with other students, so there isn't any of the hard sell you get from a campus recruiter. I highly recommend these guidebooks to anyone who is planning to attend college.

Florida State University is where I'll be in a few months! I have my parents to thank for letting me have free reign to where I'm going and Colleg Prowler for putting out these guides. They rank stuff like academics, safety and security, greek life, drug scene etc using the grading scale A-F. Florida State looks pretty good in this scale, and has enough bars and clubs near the university to make my decision final.

Peace.
